– To feel the way you do, Right-now/ Today; Tonight; Yesterday; This week; The last 2-years?

I get it!

I get it, Cos’ I feel it, too.

I’m glad, to be lucky enough that my ‘life experiences’ have quite possibly also shaped me to a, somewhat better (?) person. At least, to what I ever thought that I could be.

I am able to take things; that the ‘normal’person, simply could not!”

I AM A SURVIVOR-

I suffered from a very severe, domestic/abusive relationship, for almost a decade. All at the hands, of my ex-partner (fiancé); whom I had entirely and freely given my heart and soul to.

Only to slowly, but unknowingly, watch him destroy it. — Killing everything, that I once was.

The Danielle I grew up being? She is GONE, she will never come back.

{That’s a story for another day, though.}

My point though is.. Depression, Anxiety, Mental Illnesses — I get what it’s like!

I am an open book about it all now, in fact, I could write a book! And I have always said that one day, I would.

I Can Hide My Pain

Covering It Up, Always.

So– after a few (warranted) great posts by Stevieharrishair and myself,

I noticed that it seemed a little “too glum”, for the blog. And not wanting to pass on any further ‘negative’ type of thinking; NOR brush off the subject. I decided to make myself open to anyone needing to talk, and my next post is turning a new leaf for my time here, by sharing with you all

FIRST… before ANY of my other social media platforms, something exciting in my life!!

Personally, I prefer to *try* and surround myself with utterly positive things/people, and I truly believe that Positivity Breeds Positivity!

OK, SO WHY DID SHE EVEN MAKE A POST AT ALL IF SHE DOESNT WANT TO CONTINUE BLOGGING ABOUT IT?

I just think we now need a positive lift of morale, and to be reminded of the good things, that can occur in life!

Also, I just wanted to quickly say (as I have), about my suffering of Anxiety, and Depression.

As I mentioned earlier, I am ALWAYS an open book with my conditions and addictions.

IF youever feel (even for a second), that you’d like to reach out to me; to ask me anything; to gauge what my experiences or advice would be; or just to simply say hi!?

PLEASE do not hesitate for a second!

I am more than happy, to lend an ear, to be a friendly point of contact.

I know sometimes, you just need that ear of a stranger, to help put things into perspective again.

I also know what its like to feel so isolated & alone, finding yourself reading “strangers” posts/stories/blogs on the internet, almost feeling like they could be the only person I could talk to/tell things. Or, that (I think) would actually care.

I believe everyone should be able to talk to SOMEONE— anyone! No-one should ever feel that alone. That they feel they’ve moulded into the furniture, nobody notices them anymore. That they could simply fade away into the darkness, the brown dog; and no one would care.

I have felt like this, a lot over the past decade! So talk to me, seek me out and you shall find me.

– It’s not that hard. I’m always online, somewhere. Haha!

OK– SO.. ARE you still with me, here?
